I had a look at the rest of the site.
The "man and dino track" is an outright hoax. No human footprint looks like that (really -- step in some sand and see for yourself), and that's
not the way it looks when you step on the track of something (even a fairly deep track.) Secondly, here's what a therapod track really looks
like:

Animals when they walk (and humans) on different surfaces NEVER leave a flat footprint like something just stamped down and then lifted up a foot.
There's foldover of mud, there's difference in weight, and if you know what you are looking at, you can see if the thing was running or walking.
Carved footprints look just like someone took a big fake foot and stomped it down in the mud and lifted it right out. They get the dynamics all
wrong.
Try it for yourself someday in wet sand (make a footprint, then on a different track, walk and run and trot and jump. You'll see how different it
is.)
I try to maintain an open mind, but what I saw on the pages I skimmed were some known frauds such as the Ica Stones, and recycled material from
creationist museums. Since I work with some of the types of material he talks about, I could look at it differently than many people do. But
there's nothing there to challenge the things I see every day.
It would be interesting if there were, but it's just the same old recycled stuff, tied up with a slightly different rant about "godlessness." Even
the "Lucy" stuff is pretty bad (particularly when they offer as "proof" a cartoon. And yes, I read it.)
